大声孃孃无条件爱女：厌女泥潭中也能长出美丽的花 | 15这是一次关于从厌女到无条件爱女的思想成长之路的分享与探讨，我们从自身经验出发，重新回顾、觉察和思考发生在生命历程中与女性话题有关的一切。在自我定义为女性主义者之后，我们扒开“厌女”的过去，以反思的视角承认它、直面它。厌女作为社会的底色，我们被它包裹着长大，无意识地接受了那些深藏在日常生活、文化表达、甚至家庭教育中的性别偏见和刻板印象。或许也曾或多或少地参与了对女性的贬低、攻击等猎巫行动，甚至会对自己作为女性的身份产生怀疑与否定。这个过程无声却深远，慢慢渗透在我们的思想和行为里。而，觉醒的过程并不容易，就像要打破第四面墙，光是意识到我们身处其中就需要很多的努力和契机。但一旦我们真正看见了那些被压抑、被忽视、被误解的女性力量，去听见彼此的声音，也就更能够欣赏和认同每个女性内在的独特力量、智慧与勇气。觉醒之后再直面过去和现实处境更加不容易，我们会体验到强烈的羞耻感、无能为力的痛苦，但我们仍然希望通过这样的直面传递出一份力量，希望能够为在这条道路上挣扎、怀疑或是迷茫的你提供一份理解与支持。这条成长之路，我们还将坚定地走下去。【聊天的姐妹】广谊：有猫的心理咨询师，工作以存在人本流派为主。小红书：小崔家心理工作室WeiQI：存在-人本取向以女为本咨询师，抛弃网络平台的老派人，妄想回到书信时代。相信与当下连接的每一个瞬间都有意义。拾壹：整合取向人本女性主义咨询师，荣格取向受伤愈后的疗愈者。希望能接住无常人生的的痛苦与无助，也希望传递爱与自由。小宇宙/公众号/小红书：Seeing妳women她【Timeline】00:38 我们的相遇：女性身份认同的探索与困惑08:56 被抛弃的女性的身体16:10 从对身体的觉醒开始22:47 “女人多的地方是非多！？！”30:25 踏入女性支持社群，听听她们的经验37:18 微小的反抗也有力量！38:02 作为普通人，我们能做什么去看见女性、影响身边的人？ 46:26 播客使用孃孃这个词，也是对女性称谓的去污名化49:57 同理心：女性天然的优势与力量53:14 女，不是劣质性别58:03 无条件爱女——活出来的女性主义01:05:20 她没有放弃：坚持、团结，我们就会胜利【提及的电影】《盲山》【提及的部分社会事件】丰县男子董志民囚禁精神异常女子事件（网络称作“铁链女事件”）暨南大学郑亮极端发言事件王豪性侵案（网络称作“崔丽丽案”）【本期制作】音频剪辑：广谊文案编辑：WeiQI后期制作：拾壹本期封面：元宝AI片头音乐：《山猫/やまねこ》中岛美雪/中島みゆき片尾音乐：《梦里花》张韶涵【来互动】公众号/小红书：我们是女性咨询师邮箱：womentherapists@163.com听友群请加微信：abyxl-psy；psy374641444欢迎听众朋友们来信或进群与我们交流，分享你对于心理咨询、女性主义和现代生活中的感受、困惑、见解，主播将不定时以播客的方式做出回信，期待每一个远方的你。如果喜欢我们的节目，请在苹果播客给我们五星好评，也可以通过公众号推送的二维码给我们打赏。你还可以在苹果播客|网易云音乐|QQ音乐|豆瓣播客收听我们的节目。

The Fashion PulpitEpisode 04: Who Does the ‘Made In Singapore’ Label Serve?This episode is one of many living questions. We question the fervent need to define ‘Singapore Fashion’ and discuss how we can participate in the system beyond wear, ownership and consumption. Weiqi emphasises the need for industry-level introspection and discourse in order for our local industry to recognise that its ongoing practices and ways of working are unsustainable. Singapore Fashion needs accountability, not definitions.

The Way through Baguazhang - 八卦掌道226. The art of Weiqi (Go/Baduk) war (碁#32) - Dealing with Nature’s TaoWeeks, months, days and years. Our sense of time has been distorted by the mechanical clock. And in this modern world, we live in an impatient timescale. Everything has to be short and concise, otherwise we get bored easily.
It has been eighty-four days and our weiqi (go/baduk) game has been going strong through the social media platforms. But because we both only make one, single, move per day - everyday, the game has seen a trailing off and slow decline in viewership enthusiasm. While at the same time, a small loyal following has started to appear.

I have died and come back.
And through it all, I just kept on playing the game with my American opponent. One move per day: One black stone for him and one white stone for me.
Now, I didn’t actually die but an attempt to shut the game down was made. It came from a source that on one level had nothing to do with the game, yet the signs were there in hindsight.
So now you, dear listener, must be wondering what’s so special about the game we are playing?

Fifty-one days of fifty-one black stones and fifty-one white stones vying for control over the weiqi (go/baduk) board. That is longer than the recent hot war between Armenia and Azerbaijan. And we are still going strong. Which is a good thing because both of us would love to drop a daisycutter on each others' asses, but the ratings seem to favour death by ninja stealth more.
And so, we take things slow and watch the intensity build as we try to force each other's hand to bend to our will.
What I find really interesting...

2020-11-1433 minThe Way through Baguazhang - 八卦掌道219. The art of Weiqi (Go/Baduk) war (碁#29) - Developing Situational AwarenessSo much of martial arts these days is focused on the physical. Can a person kick, punch and wrestle to overcome their opponent (if there is one)?
Yet, as I play weiqi or Go against my American opponent, I start to understand that the over-reliance on the physical, is just a mask. A mask to hide deep fundamental flaws in one's training. And that flaw is the rejection of what it means to be human as opposed to just being an animal.
We humans are sentient beings, who have overcome our natural adversaries by cultivating our minds to such an...

The art of Weiqi (Go/Baduk) war (碁#28) - When two worlds collideSo recently while playing against my American opponent, we both have come to enjoy the pace of our game, with each of us making one move per day. This gives us both twenty-four hours to ponder over our moves before we must place a stone on the board.
And despite the thousands of mental calculations possible, both of us settle down to a handful of possible moves. And it's really a case of hypothetical theory meets practical reality. With the facts on the ground dictating the way things will move forward.
Since this is the first time we have played...

Well actually...

Okay, well maybe not totally boring: I published six books on Amazon.com, and started an international weiqi game that you can follow on Instagram as part of The Weiqi Art of War, made visual for the people who don't read or listen to anything.
And then there's the virus, the wars, the riots and the protests, and all the other shenanigans... And I'm finding it still a tad bit boring.

2020-09-1829 minThe Way through Baguazhang - 八卦掌道206. Genchitaofu Baguazhang's Tao - 艮氣道福八卦掌の道Well, I did it again.
I published another book in this fine month of August, two thousand and twenty. Three books in a row this month.
The first book is called The Weiqi Art of War. The second book is called Suntzu's Art of War in Thirteen Acts. And now I present to you The Baguazhang Art of War.
And all are available on Amazon.com.
My latest book, The Baguazhang Art of War, is for people that want to get to know me better. And it is for people who want to better understand the martial art of baguazhang...
2020-08-3005 minThe Way through Baguazhang - 八卦掌道203. Why should I buy The Weiqi Art of War?Thank you Edwardo (not his real name) for your question. Why should you indeed. Hmmmm...

2020-08-1105 minThe Way through Baguazhang - 八卦掌道201. The art of Weiqi (Go/Baduk) war (碁#26)For those of you who do not like the idea that Weiqi is a war, perhaps it could be better fathomed as a dialogue between two antagonistic players, who are ready to back their words up with force.
But the skill lies not in direct confrontation.
Rather, the aim is to outmaneuver one's opponent and influence as much territory as possible before it comes to blows. It was this constant strategic maneuvering that makes The Cold War the real third world war.
So for those of you who are still waiting for World War Three to start, I've got news...

It is forever changing by the decisions and actions we make in the right here and now. Even our thoughts and feelings in the present moment can be a major factor in how it all plays out, one stone at a time.
As I am sitting here at my kitchen table, it is early morning and a light fog is slowly clearing up. I have a stick of Japanese incense burning nearby and I'm wondering about whether or not to make myself a cup of tea?
If I do, then the noise may wake up...

Qigong Art of War - The Civil War withinEven if you care nothing for Baguazhang internal martial arts, or the game of Go/Weiqi, or even the Art of War and just want to find inner peace through the tranquil art of Qigong, the sad fact is: If it involves other people, the you have to play the game.
What game, you ask?
Truthfully, there is no game or at least there shouldn't be. Qigong is the inner cultivation of one's life force through external actions. This is what separates it out from meditation and sitting still like rock. And even if you were to disagree with me...
2020-05-2503 minThe Way through Baguazhang - 八卦掌道189. The art of Weiqi (Go/Baduk) war (碁#23) - The World War that never ComesFor most people, if they know the game of Weiqi (or Go, as it is more popularly known) is just another strategy game. If they do get any good at it, then maybe they will choose to go professional. For this is the path proscribed for most people in Japan, China, Korea and Taiwan, wanting to master the game.
However, if you are listening to this podcast or any one of the other Weiqi Art of War podcasts, then you, in your deepest of hearts are wanting something more.
And the name of that game is "World Domination".
The game...

The art of Weiqi (Go/Baduk) war (碁#22) - The Physics of Wall StreetWhen the tides of fortune are flowing in your favour, problems can now be resolved. Even if a situation has reached a stalemate because too many obstacles stand in the way of further progress.
This is because the other side's condition is not in their favour anymore and they have decided to make a strategic withdrawal, even though, they appear to be in a stronger position.
For observors of the game, the situation upon the Weiqi (Go/Baduk) board has reached crisis point. There is a sense that the pressure is of such magnitude, that something has to give. And...
2020-04-2004 minThe Way through Baguazhang - 八卦掌道184. The art of Weiqi (Go/Baduk) War (碁#21) - Coronavirus COVID-19 (2/2)Recently while playing a bit of Weiqi (Go/Baduk), I had for the fourth time come across a dilemma that only reveals itself when a player repeatedly plays a certain game.
This dilemma is the inexplicable sensation one gets that while the end result remains always the same, just like the starting plays, there is a sense that during the game the sequential order of play keeps rearranging itself.
I know this sounds crazy and in the tangible, if you are hearing this, nothing physical actually changes. It is the perception of what is happening that keeps changing. And that...
2020-04-1104 minThe Way through Baguazhang - 八卦掌道179. The art of Weiqi (Go/Baduk) War (碁#20) - Coronavirus COVID-19 (1/2)As Coronavirus COVID-19 spreads around the globe, a growing number of people can't help but wonder if the virus is man-made?
So far the numbers of people directly dying from the disease has been extremely low compared to the overall world human population. And yet, the virus has managed to induce such a dramatic response that whole economies are shutting down and countries are in lockdown.
On top of all that, the rhetoric used to justify these responses are starting to sound more and more like the soundbites used when a country is about to go to war with another...

After being told yet again how great and powerful artificial intelligence is at winning over human competition, I have been tempted to give up the game.
But the thing is, for me the game of Go or Weiqi is more than just a game. It is a multidimensional window into the workings of the human mind. And more specifically my opponent's mind.
Artificial intelligence can only learn, adapt and mould its response to changing circumstances. It cannot by itself create a new reality out of its environment. And must...
2020-02-1502 minThe Way through Baguazhang - 八卦掌道166. The art of Weiqi (Go/Baduk) war (碁#18) - Losing at the GameThey say sometimes losing is a form of winning. Who they are, I don't know. But experience has shown me many times that it's not the losing that is winning but that we sometimes have to lose first in order to win second.
Now to be clear, I do not recommend this strategy unless you know what you are doing and have a clear goal that justifies the means. Otherwise you are liable to get labelled a loser. And I've never heard of a guy getting a free fuck because they're losers. It just doesn't happen.
And yet at the...

2019-12-141h 22The Way through Baguazhang - 八卦掌道159. Genchitaofu Baguazhang's Weiqi - 艮氣道福八卦掌の圍碁 (☴/☰)☳ Because Baguazhang 八卦掌 is a martial art that utilises physical palm changes and sudden circular directional turns, it can be difficult to make sense of what's what in the cyclonic tornado that marks the style.
☵ Staying focused on the target is not always easy to achieve when confronted by multiple moving distractions. And therefore something needs to help the brain process information faster, with reasonable accuracy, than the body's instinctual responses are able to.
☶ Back in the days when computers didn't generally exist, and most martial artists weren't the academic type to sit still and study all day, playing Weiqi or Go 圍碁 was us...
2019-10-3003 minThe Way through Baguazhang - 八卦掌道153. The art of Weiqi (Go/Baduk) war (碁#17) 乾 (☲/☱)While recently I have been adventuring around the fringes of qigong, regarding pendants and how to use them to facilitate the acceleration of qi cultivation, I kept as always my baguazhang practice going alongside my i-ching.
To me, baguazhang, i-ching, qigong, chazen, weiqi and bingfa or the Art of War, are all just pretty much one thing. Just like seeing with the eyes different objects but knowing underneath it all, it is just energy; Energy expressed in different forms.
So in amongst my little adventure, I found the time to play some weiqi. Black stones and white stones circling each...
2019-10-0204 minThe Way through Baguazhang - 八卦掌道152. Qigong & the Black Bagua Pendant (☲/☷)It is Tuesday morning and bucketing down heavily. And cold. Sydney CBD, which is normally humming with people, is unusually quiet. And as far as energy work goes, I had had enough of the Blue Kyanite Pendant. While it is a beautiful pendant, something about wearing it is a little off, and spiritually speaking, the weather would only get worse if something positive wasn’t done about it soon.
And so I had found my way to Paddy’s Markets in Haymarket at the bottom end of Chinatown. Yes, Sydney has its very own Chinatown replete with all the things a lo...
2019-09-2504 minThe Way through Baguazhang - 八卦掌道142. The art of Weiqi (Go/Baduk) war (碁#16) 兌 (☱/☶)I am always amazed at the thoughts that play in my head when I am playing Weiqi (Go/Baduk). The world around me gets put aside, and both me and the world get a bit of me time: Time out from all the weekly bullshit circulating around.
If there is a cup of tea beside me, then it becomes the more tranquil moment of "Tea Time equals Me Time". And in that moment, while I am playing – clarity shows up.
It's kind of cool to know that while the world is preparing to bash itself silly, I have a way to...
2019-08-2503 minThe Way through Baguazhang - 八卦掌道139. The new Weiqi (Go/Baduk) mat (☷/☴)Last month I promised myself that if I had a highly successful and profitable tea business for that month, I would reward myself with a new Weiqi mat.
And so, I made my financial targets for that month and at my local Taiwanese bookstore I bought a new Weiqi mat. Beautiful: Bold black lines printed on soft brown leather. Just beautiful.
Finally I put aside my old Chinese-made plastic mat and let go of the symbolic elemental meaning of plastic.
Plastic represents that, which is man-made and cannot be naturally found in nature. It represents the need for control over...
2019-08-2102 minThe Way through Baguazhang - 八卦掌道133. The art of Weiqi (Go/Baduk) war (碁#15) 離 (☷/☵)While the upside of Baguazhang is that a fighter gets to fight outside of the ring as something like a phantom. The downside of Baguazhang is that war is fought on the individual immediate level: Every experience is felt personally and direct. There is no room for abstraction.
When it comes to the I-Ching and the I-Ching Art of War, one is in the set-up stage that happens way before any inkling of war has dawned on the smartest of people. Here we are making decisions and making moves that can easily be changed, if circumstances dictate it.
There are...
2019-07-2803 minThe Way through Baguazhang - 八卦掌道129. 📕 (Chapter I) Baguazhang art of war - Beyond the battlefield (☰/☱)In podcast number 127, the Art of Weiqi (Go/Baduk) War, I spoke generally about the differences between the Weiqi Art of War and Suntzu's classic by the same English name but what is known in Chinese as "Sun Tzu Bing Fa".
By studying the two versions, it broadly allows the master of war to win from a strategic vantage point. In other words, you're learning to play like a boss as a boss would when having boss issues.
Baguazhang on the other hand puts things in another realm, yet again.
And it can get a little confusing, depending on who...
2019-07-1103 minThe Way through Baguazhang - 八卦掌道128. The art of Weiqi (Go/Baduk) war (碁#14) 震 (☰/☷)Like all games of chess, from whatever country or culture they came from, the end result or aim is always the same: Dominion over one's defined territory.
That "defined territory" is marked by the outer borders of the game itself. And both players elect by the rules of the game to stay on or within those marked lines.
Hence, people who are good at Weiqi are also very good at fighting civil wars. The stronger the player, the better they are at turning the fears and uncertainties of the chaotic situation into a profitable exercise.
So if that is the...
2019-07-0603 minThe Way through Baguazhang - 八卦掌道127. The art of Weiqi (Go/Baduk) war (碁#13) 巽 (☰/☰)門 Every now and then, I get a very good question that deserves answering: What is the difference between the Weiqi Art of War and Sun Tzu's classic by the same name?
☴ The main difference between the two is one of focus, mindset and who the intended receiver of such profound wisdom was.
☲ Sun Tzu's beautiful work of art, was in response to a king's questions regarding war and the making of it. Sun Tzu, being a sharp fella, realised very quickly the flipancy in the king's way and needed a diplomatic way in advising the king on not making war, but if...

The art of Weiqi (Go/Baduk) war (碁#12) 坎 (☰/☶)My podcast number 125 is called "Ghosts of Shanghai" and that is the title of one of the books I'm currently reading. For most of my listener's, that podcast is like a pleasant diversion, most enjoyed the way some people get all their sleeping done on long-distance flights.
It's fun to listen to, but it has no bearing to their lives. In fact, it's more like the helmsman has left the wheel and his second-in-command is praying that the ship doesn't run aground in some godforsaken place run amok with headhunters.

Ip Man was a master of Wing Chun Kung Fu 詠春功夫 and I've spoken about him in my very first podcast: Ip Man drinks tea.
In my dream, I found myself entering a warmly lit Hong Kong street cafe. The kind that served Chinese fried Cheung Fun alongside more western spam and scrambled eggs. Real scrambled in a wok eggs - not the microwaved egg stuff most cafes in Sydney like to serve.

Life would move on. I would go and collect my metaphysical paycheque for a job well done. And then I would settle down to a life that most people can comprehend and accept as being normal.
For a while, things would be going okay except for the fact that I am living outside of my Zone of Genius, or what is more commonly referred to as being “Not in th...
2019-05-1202 minThe Way through Baguazhang - 八卦掌道95. The art of weiqi (go/baduk) war (碁#9) ☴So here we are in the Weiqi game: The place where - how we end things - is most critical to the successful outcome of the game.
Unlike real war, where people tend to actually die a hell of a lot, the business of business warfare is like a grinding millstone that never ever ends. Yes, we are sold the dream of victory and success through wealth and riches, but those materialistic goals tend to leave a bitter taste after a while.
And so, there comes the point where we start to daydream of taking off the crown, removing the...
2019-04-1902 minThe Way through Baguazhang - 八卦掌道94. The art of weiqi (go/baduk) war (碁#8) ☲The stones go clank on the weiqi board. Or do they go clink. Some people argue that they go clonk. Or was that clunk? However, which way, a player hears the sound of stones being placed on the board, they can be as sweet as a gentle stream out in the middle of nowhere.
And just hearing myself, say these things, makes me wonder about the significance of the thoughts I am sharing with you.
Perhaps through the game of weiqi, I am seeking freedom. Even though at the core of my being I know that I am already free...

According to internet sources a.k.a. Google and their competitors, selling loose leaf tea is in the same category of niche-ness as being an uncut diamond smuggler living his lifestyle dream in the jungles of west Africa.
Who would have guessed, that the second most drunk beverage on earth after water, had become super-niche.

At the end they put the board and stones away. And spend the rest of the evening reminiscing about how great or poorly they played the game. The end.
Between games, the Weiqi master does not exist. He or she lives as a dream within the mind of a person doing a nine to five job that they may or may not like.
The life of a Go player is pretty much the same, even though the name of the game has changed. The...

To which I get the proper question of “What do I do for a living?” I already knew that that was what they meant, but I wanted to be sure.

And no matter how much these geniuses in the ivory tower say they know their maths, they too want to know next week’s lottery numbers.

2019-04-1204 minThe Way through Baguazhang - 八卦掌道85. The art of weiqi (go/baduk) war (碁#6) ☷The Art of Weiqi (Go/Baduk) war is more than just surrounding stones on a board with yet more stones.
The game is about finding an opponent's tipping point and then gently nudging your opponent over the line. Ideally it is done in such a way that the opponent must react to you move with maximum firepower while all you did was put a stone on the board.
How this is achieved depends on how well you know your opponent. As Suntzu said, " Know thy enemy - know thy self".
People who are pre-set to committing seppuku have a really...
2019-04-0702 minThe Way through Baguazhang - 八卦掌道81. The art of weiqi (go/baduk) war (碁#5) ☶The game of Go is an abstract board game for two players in which the aim is to surround more territory than the opponent.
Weiqi is the Chinese name and Baduk is the Korean name of the same game.
For most people, who are aware of the game, the game is the dominion of geeks, nerds and unkept guys who need to take better care of their physical health.
To truly play Weiqi well, the mind (through the body) needs to be well maintained. Especially, since the line between what is game and what is life can get blurred.

During one Weiqi game played years ago...
A certain stone was placed upon the board.
Placed upon the board with the traditional two finger placement, it went clunk! And I knew that The Rubicon had finally been crossed.
And with that, the dragon that had placed the stone on the Weiqi board quietly sipped their cup of tea. Before returning back into their posture of contemplation.
The dragon in opposition sat in discomfort but with the possibility that their divine grace could...

When a person has internalized the art of war, whether it be through Suntzu or Sunbin or both, life for the person takes on a whole new perspective that makes the Middle Kingdom insignificant to the larger scheme of things.
I had not yet internalized them, but by 1994 through the Heart of Africa, I had begun to feel it's effects upon the destiny I was treading by way of the Weiqi (Go/Baduk) game.

2019-03-3002 minThe Way through Baguazhang - 八卦掌道78. The art of weiqi (go/baduk) war (碁#2) ☰Mankind desires peace in his time, but the evidence shows that the ideal of peace is not actually what he wants. Mankind finds peace to be like an endless paradise that is slowly turning into drought.
The summer of abundance becomes the space in which boredom sets in. And he actually starts to crave the uncertainty of war.
Mankind does not explicitly say so, but rather wraps this desire in positive images that can be sold to the rest of humanity. Small messages and clues – small little acts that eventually will lead to the same outcome: War.
In playing Weiqi (Go...
2019-03-3001 minThe Way through Baguazhang - 八卦掌道68. When 2 dragons claim a board - (La Joueuse de Go) 'The girl who played Go' by Shan ShaThe game of Go or weiqi is an interesting game. On the surface it is as logical as a cold hard scientist in love with nothing but mathematics. You have a board containing exactly 361 co-ordinates or points. And exactly 361 stones that fit nicely on all of those co-ordinates.
And yet, a simple rule guarantees chaos – You can never have it all. Either you never touch the board or you must learn to share it. For most people in the world that is life. And the sharing of things lead to problems that need resolving.
In the world of absolutes ruled by...

The art of weiqi (go/baduk) war (碁#1) – Introduction: Welcome☰ Make yourself a cup of tea 茶, gently sit down and mindfully start practicing Tea Time equals Me Time for what I am about to tell you is this: I have been told once or twice that Baguazhang 八卦掌 is the martial art of the Gods 神. And that the Grandmasters 大公傅 of Baguazhang 八卦掌 are the high priests 大祭司.
☷ On the surface of things, this may or may not be true. But as I gaze upon the Go 碁 broad I am playing, it does make me wonder about the deeper significance of what it actually means.

☳ Such a time and place of bonding happened recently with my oldest daughter.
☵ What I like about the game of Go 碁, is that it can suck players into a world of infinite possibilities at the beginning and lead them to a place where no moves are left possible.
☶ And at the same time teaching strategy, tactics and observation from a higher plane of existence. And allowing me to teach what book...

☷/☵ In the picture we have Yi Weiqi 弈圍棋 (not her real name) playing Go 碁. She sits pondering over the board as the stones of black and white are arranged in a roughly circular pattern. Off to one side there is a cup of tea and she could be having her daily Tea Time equals Me Time. But you aren't sure. And you are wondering what Weiqi 圍棋 and the game of Go 碁 have to do with Baguzhang 八卦掌?

Destroy Digital#016 – Content StrategyThere is content strategy and then, there is content strategy. As with any strategy, we can talk about it until the cows come home. This is hopefully not one of those episodes. The key thing to remember is that while some strategies fall into categories, the best strategy for your particular situation is not always the same as someone else’s.
That was a diplomatic way of saying – don’t steal. Just because you’ve seen someone do it once, doesn’t always mean it’s going to work for you. Take the time to allow your team to invest...
